Tim Berners-Lee
I have always imagined the information space as something to which everyone has immediate and intuitive access, and not just
to browse, but to create. [...] Furthermore, the dream of people-to-people communication through shared knowledge must be
possible for groups of all sizes, interacting electronically with as much ease as they do now in person.
The Mobile Web Initiative is important - information must be made seamlessly available on any device.
